there was probably no political family who were more in tuned with mainstream news and mass media that the clintons, there have been loving documentaries about how close they were with CNN etc back in the day.

they have no clue about the internet though lol that's for sure.

Tbf Clinton consultant class did the standard ad plays because they made what, 5% for all media buys. Running ads on tv stations during prime time costs way more than running ads on Facebook.

Wasn't it leaked in the DNC emails that Hillary's campaign wanted MSM to talk about Trump all the time because they thought he woupd be easier to beat than Jeb Bush?

hillary clinton, a woman who (if you believe the best-case explanation for her previous behavior), did not publicly support gay marriage for a long time since it was not politically viable to do so, just had no way of knowing that the american public was also largely racist and misogynistic.

I don't think anyone has said he's going to take a "principled stand for gay people". It's just that people who are saying Trump is going to ok literal execution squads for gay people are stupid.
I was talking to a friend soon after the election and he "as a straight man" apologized to me as he thought darkness was descending onto my life. I was like, thanks for the sentiment but nothing's going to happen. :shrug:

Hot take: I think Donald Trump is pretty much indifferent to things like gays or minorities and is way more interested in things like:

*making money
*being popular
*boosting his ego

I kinda get the sense that things like race, sexual orientation and any desire to even learn the names of what country he has people bombing are not even on his radar.
Showbiz president. He's not gonna change much which is already a relief to liberals since he's mostly flash, little substance. But conservatives like him, since they are fine with time basically freezing in the place and little getting done. A lot of the pro-Trump stuff is vague "he's a strong leader" stuff that will take a Hurricane Katrina scale fuckup to undo.

Conventional wisdom has it that you pick a running mate to balance the ticket. This would point to Trump being relatively progressive (for a conservative) towards gays since Pence brings with him the evangelical vote. I think what we can expect from this administration is no change. They won't assault gay rights but they won't fight for them either.

Abortion rights on the other hand are pretty much always in jeopardy because the issue is truly grassroots. If you believe that abortion is literally murder it makes perfect sense within that worldview that you should fight it tooth and nail.

Lol what does that say about Hillary and Kaine then

Or is this another example of "throw the conventional wisdom in the trash, were Brooklyn technocrats with Big Datas on our side"

Seriously, they were doing the thing a bunch of Republican crybabies did when Obama won twice, except theirs was usually "my dad/mom/grandfather is crying" and in D&D and a lot of twitters it was 8 year-olds. Somebody pointed out it was consistently age 8 getting the spotlight and suddenly there was a switch-up.

HOW AM I GOING TO EXPLAIN TO MY CHILDREN THAT HITLER IS BACK FROM THE DEAD AND ALL THEIR FRIENDS ARE GETTING DEPORTED?

Those letters from the parents of 8 year olds were hilarious. Random backwards letters, letters allegedly from multiple children even though they were all in the same too-neat-for-a-kid handwriting and lots of "cute" phonetic misspellings except for the word 'country', because the phonetically correct misspelling would involve the word 'oval office'.

Exactly. My kids are 8 and 11 and only have a vague impression that there's somebody running the country. Stuff like G.I. Joes and roller skating are what's important to little kids.

Imagine how joyful Clinton felt as she was autographing these magazines on election day:



And how all that turned into the bitterest ash in her mouth that night.
